| By Will Bonner, Founder, Bonner Private Wine Partnership Come with me on a journey 5,000 miles away… to a land where campfires burn late into the night as cowboys doze off under the stars… ...where women work looms under the early dawn’s first light… ...where the nearest city is six hours away across a jagged mountain landscape… ...where Heaven and Earth seem to become one on a clear, boundless horizon… ...where a small brotherhood of winemakers produce some of the highest-altitude vintages in the world. | Recommended Link | | Teeka's Newest Pre-IPO Rec in America's #1 Sector The IPO market is on fire. Reuters says it's a "frenzy." The Wall Street Journal calls it a "bonanza." And Renaissance Capital says this boom is "historic." But one sector is leading the pack. Forbes calls it America's "most profitable sector." And during his Set for Life Summit, former hedge fund manager Teeka Tiwari will reveal how to access his top pre-IPO pick for 2020… A tiny company operating in the heart of America's No. 1 sector. He'll reveal how grabbing a pre-IPO stake in it could make you a million dollars or more… and become set for life. It's happening Wednesday, September 9, at 8 p.m. ET. | | | -- | Adventure Calling Back in 2005, I got a phone call from my father, Bill Bonner. Now, as I’m sure all his Diary readers know, although he’s in his 70s, Dad’s not exactly your average retiree. When he’s here in the U.S., he still spends every weekend working on his farm: mending wooden fences, repairing the old barns, keeping the fields orderly. That’s when he’s not writing a book… playing Johnny Cash on his guitar… or venturing to some little-known corner of the world… So when he told me that he’d found something special in Argentina… …well, I knew I was in for an adventure. A Revolutionary New Force Set to Create 818,236 New Millionaires Over the Next Three Years… Something Special It turned out that that “something special” was a ranch the size of Rhode Island. It’s called Gualfin. Trouble was… it was located in the Calchaquí Valley, a frontier land way out on Argentina’s northwestern corridor… i.e. in the middle of nowhere! I had to use satellite imagery to look it up… Go figure – “Gualfin” is an old Indian name for “end of the road.” Still, Dad was adamant I come check it out… When I got there (it took me three days), I was swept away by the beauty of the place… …and how it literally felt like the end of the Earth… At the end of the Earth... Initially, we figured we could raise cattle on it. Dad with his cattle in Argentina But Dad and I soon discovered that it was far too dry and remote to sustain much of a cattle or farming operation… at least, not profitably. | Recommended Link | Retire Rich on One Stock!

They had been planted by the previous owner of the ranch as an experiment. Incredibly, what we had discovered, right there on the ranch, was one of the highest-altitude vineyards in the world… at over 8,000 feet… ...and a unique microclimate found nowhere else on Earth. The hidden vineyard at Gualfin – 8,421 feet above the world As it turned out, we weren’t alone. All across the Calchaquí, in little valleys hidden away from the world, a small brotherhood of winemakers has toiled away in near obscurity for 200 years… using techniques passed down from father to son… making wines unlike any others you’ve ever had. Looking for the next tech cash cow? This is it. The secret to why these wines are becoming so highly prized today (I’ve seen single bottles go for $500 plus here in the States) lies in the extreme conditions that their grapes must survive each passing season – daily blasts of UV light 80% more intense than in Bordeaux… and nightly temperature swings of up to 70 degrees… Yet, they also drink pure, nutrient-rich snowmelt that trickles down from 10,000 feet. And because of the altitude, there is less need to drench the vines in chemicals (which can’t be said of many wine regions). Nor will the winemakers insult them by mixing in “oak” extracts, dyes (more common than you think), or excess sugar (in fact, the resulting wines are 99% lower in residual sugar than other wines we tested). Special Character Yet, until recently, you pretty much had to be a near-billionaire (or at least friends with one) to even get your hands on a bottle of one of these exclusive, high-altitude wines… After all, most of these wineries are too small and too remote for a major importer to spend time on. That’s how I came up with the idea of a partnership. I would band together some good friends to import the world’s great wines to American shores – sometimes for the first time ever. If we could just get enough people together to fill an entire shipping container, we could make it work. And so began the Bonner Private Wine Partnership. When we first opened, we had so little wine, we had to limit membership to just 1,000 members. It’s not an easy business. Members of my team have almost died at least twice getting out to these isolated little valleys. Currency fluctuations, tariffs, and shipping costs make it hell on a balance sheet. But in France, they say that a great wine comes not from the grape, but from the character of the man who made it. It takes a special kind of character to live out so high above the world, at what feels like the edge of the Earth. And it takes a special kind of character to forego the luxury so common in other wine regions like Mendoza or Napa in search of something different. At the Bonner Private Wine Partnership, we figure if we can keep these isolated winemakers going, the difficulty will be worth it. Regards, Will Bonner
